So here’s the dealio: it’s spring break at our house this week and Teacher Man decided it was time to refinish the butcher block countertops in our kitchen. I’m fine with that, of course, but it basically puts my kitchen out of commission for a few days. All my countertop space is in the process […] Read more…
When you’re known as “Minnesota’s Gobble Gal” on social media, you might think it’s odd that I feature a recipe that calls for ham. However, a few things: While turkey accounts for the vast majority of protein we eat at home, we do switch it up and feature pork, beef, and chicken once in awhile. It’s […] Read more…
We’re back after a busy weekend that started at my sister and brother-in-law’s new house, helping them unpack, and ended at the farm for Easter. I’m not going to lie.

We took matters into our own hands and basically told my sister and brother-in-law that we planned to “steal” Morgan on Saturday […] Read more…
It’s taken me 72 hours of mini-hibernation but I think I’m finally catching up on my sleep. Last Monday I took off for Saint Paul, where my office started set up for the 45th annual Midwest Poultry Federation Convention – the largest show focused solely on the poultry industry in the U.S. The convention itself […] Read more…
I find myself sitting in our porch tonight under two of the most unlikely scenarios: The window is open on this crazy beautiful – warm! – March evening. I am all by myself. Well, not counting Earl the pug, who is snoring at my feet. But there is no Teacher Man or Joe Man here […] Read more…
